Several years ago I did this with a drill. I think I used a wooden dowel or something similar to connect the drill to the pump. BTW, you have to run the drill COUNTERCLOCKWISE! It wasn't so much a ma

Yes, I googled "homemade tig welder" or something like that, and I saw a description of somebody's project to build an inverter module. It looked more complex and expensive than the rest of the welde

Can't you just replace the breaker and the receptacle with 30 amp versions? http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/shop-talk/doug at dougbraun.com

I have owned about 5 or 6 Garmins over the last 15 years, and I have (obviously) been happy with them. The biggest downside is that the databases get out-of-date, and you have to pay real money for u

Unlike most regulators, that one is not potted. So it is in theory fixable, if you can identify what component is bad, and get a replacement for it. The circuit may be nothing but a rectifier and a v

don't you actually mean an "inlet"? Aren't weatherproof inlet boxes readily available (but somewhat overpriced)? For example: http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200485258_200485258 Doug P

I once read some compressor manual that said to avoid multi-viscosity or detergent oils (one or the other, but I forget which) because they would cause carbon deposits to build up on the reed valves.

The seal is sort of dodgy: A flat part of the metal M/C presses against a flat part of the plastic reservoir, and there is a flat rubber washer between them. Given how much a new one costs, I would t

There seem to be some Chinese AC-DC welders starting at about $1000, but that's not much less than the price of a Miller Diversion 165. I don't understand why AC-DC welders are so much more expensive
